Iasos (Erken Bizans) ve Camihöyük (Helenistik-Roma) Kazıları İskelet Toplulukları Üzerinde Karşılaştırmalı Element Analizi

İskelet kalıntıları üzerinde yapılan element analizleri, eski insanlarındiyetlerine giren besinler ve yaşadıkları ekolojik ortamın yanı sıra sözkonusu toplum hakkında da çeşitli veriler sağlar. Erken Bizans DönemiIasos Kazısı (Muğla, Milas, Kıyıkışlacık Köyü) örnekleri üzerinde yürütülenbu çalışmada element analizi yöntemiyle diyet, sağlık, çevresel özellikler,ekonomik yapı ve kültürel örüntüler gibi çeşitli açılardan iki toplumarasındaki farklılıkların ortaya çıkarılması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçlaIasos örneklerinden 36 bireyin kaburga kemiğinde Atomik AbsorpsiyonSpektroskopi (AAS) yöntemi ile demir (Fe), bakır (Cu), magnezyum(Mg), manganez (Mn), molibden (Mo), kurşun (Pb), çinko (Zn) ve nikel(Ni) eser elementlerinin düzeyleri araştırılmıştır. Sağlanan veriler, ayrıbir çalışmada yayımlanan Helenistik-Roma Dönemi Camihöyük Kazısı(Kayseri, Bayramhacı Köyü) bulgularıyla karşılaştırılmıştır. Biri denizeldiğeri ise karasal iklimde bulunan iki toplumun iskelet kalıntılarındakielement düzeyleri üzerinde yapılan değerlendirmeler; Iasosluların denizürünlerine, Camihöyük insanlarının ise tahıllara dayalı diyete sahipolduklarını ortaya koymuştur. Kemiklerde kurşun ağır metalinin birikmesi,her iki toplumun da muhtemelen ekolojik ortamıyla ve besinleri hazırlayışbiçimleri gibi kültürel özellikleriyle ilişkili görülmüştür.

A Comparative Elemental Analysis on Human Skeletal Remains from Iasos (Early Byzantine) and Camihöyük (Hellenistic-Roman)

Elemental analyses on skeletal remains provide nutrition models for ancient people and the ecological environment they live in, as well as the information on a variety of social issues. In this study conducted on Early Byzantine Iasos samples, it is aimed to discover differences such as diet, health, environmental features, economic structure and cultural patterns between diverse populations with element analysis method. For this purpose, the iron (Fe), copper (Cu), magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) levels were measured by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) in the ribs of 36 individuals from Iasos. The data provided are compared with the Camihöyük findings from the Hellenistic-Roman period, which was published in a separate study. The evaluations on the measured element levels of the skeletal remains from the two two communities, where one is from a marine and the other is from a continental climate, have shown that Iasos people had a seafood-based, while Camihoyuk people had a cereal-based nutrition model. The accumulation of heavy metals such as lead in the bones is linked to the ecological environment and the cultural characteristics of the societies, such as the way they prepare food.
